It provides a comprehensive view of how Gandhian ideas have both a temporal and spatial universality significantly different from Western modern philosophy's universality claims. The chapters represent different styles of philosophy but with a common purpose, offering insights into how the global debates on religion, morality, and politics are assessed from Gandhi's point of view. Written in language accessible to general readers with an interest in Gandhian thinking, the book will appeal to academics and philosophers. 001471931 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001471931 60010 $$aGandhi,$$cMahatma,$$d1869-1948$$xInfluence. 001471931 60010 $$aGandhi,$$cMahatma,$$d1869-1948$$xPhilosophy. 001471931 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001471931 7001_ $$aPuri, Bindu. 001471931 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMiri, Mrinal$$tGandhi for the 21st Century$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore Pte.
